Beauty Tips
Gold Medal-Worthy Beauty Products from Around the WorldAs the world prepares to watch the Summer Olympics, we decided to host our very own beauty-themed games. Behold the winningest products from around the globe |
Latin America Gold: Agua Maravilla.* This is a cure-all even though it isn't really meant to be. Senior Art Director Paola Gonzales says, "You can wash your face with it, you can use it as a toner and some people even drink it -- like my grandma."
Silver: Lacio Lacio.* This is a leave-in conditioner that Carrillo calls "amazing." "It stands for 'straight straight,' and it really delivers on its name. It makes your hair super shiny and soft and controls frizz."
Bronze: Agua de Violetas.* While it's marketed for children as a hydrating spray, Gonzales says it's the absolute one thing every adult needs when you're in the Caribbean. Why? "Because a spritz from this is the only thing that'll keep you feeling fresh and hydrated in the heat."
* Not available in the U.S. Great excuse to fly to the Caribbean.

Uriage Roseliane cream is my favorite. Its the only thing the works to take the redness out of my skin. I apply it as a moisterizer and it keeps my face looking neutral and beautiful..no more blotchiness!

I was a little underwhelmed by the YuBe skin cream. It's kind of greasy and really medicinal smelling.
